Sauerkraut - Fermented Pickled Cabbage
Sauerkrauts - Authentic probiotic superfood that kept everyone from the vikings in the west to mongols in the east healthy, is now on your dinner table. Sauerkraut is the hidden gem of a fibre rich probiotic that has prevented sea farmers, voyagers and discoverers from getting nutrient deficiencies (especially vitamin C) while sailing across the globe. Made with the finest of ingredients, fermented to perfection to bring about the phenomenal properties of probiotics
Sauerkraut is a great accompaniment to any meal. Finely sliced cabbage is 'pickled' with bacteria that produces lactic acid, which gives Sauerkrauts their distinctly sour taste - the process of the bacteria eating up the natural sugars present in these foods. The fermentation process increases the nutritional value of the cabbage, and the fiber and probiotics improve digestion, and protect against diseases of the digestive system
